For the Viewer and Canvas, this affects both timecode fields along their tops, and in the case of the Viewer, the timecode fields of its tabs. For the Timeline, this affects the timecode shown along the top of the window and in the Current Timecode field. The timecode displays in the Transition Editor and Trim Edit windows are also affected. Important: The feet and frame values that are shown are not the same as keycode or ink numbers. The feet and frame values always start at 0000+00 at the beginning of the sequence or clip. When using the Feet+Frame timecode display mode, you can enter values in the same places you can enter timecode values. For example, you can enter a value in the Current Timecode field of the Viewer to position its playhead. To ensure the number you enter is correctly interpreted by Final Cut Pro, make sure to use one of the following characters to separate the feet and frame values: plus sign (+), ampersand (&), period (.), or comma (,). Opening Final Cut Pro Clips in Cinema Tools You cannot directly change any items in a Cinema Tools database while in Final Cut Pro. However, you can open a clip in Cinema Tools from Final Cut Pro to make changes to that clip's database record. Once you have done this, you need to synchronize that clip so that the changes appear in Final Cut Pro. To open a clip in Cinema Tools from Final Cut Pro 1 Select a clip or a group of clips in the Browser. 2 Choose View > Open in Cinema Tools. The clip opens in a Cinema Tools Clip window. If you selected multiple clips, each opens in its own Clip window. Any changes you make, such as to a camera roll number, are added to the clip's database record. After you have finished making the changes, you can synchronize the clips in Final Cut Pro with the modified Cinema Tools database. See Synchronizing Final Cut Pro Clips with Cinema Tools for more information. Restrictions for Using Multiple Tracks Final Cut Pro allows you to edit in multiple video tracks and multiple audio tracks. Although there are advantages to using numerous tracks, there are some restrictions to keep in mind when you are using Final Cut Pro with Cinema Tools: • When you export your film lists, you specify the video track to base the list on. If you have included titles and superimposed images on a second video track, you must export a second film list to include that information. 150 Chapter 9 Editing with Final Cut Pro
